Hypothetically, if a colleague has repeatedly demonstrated the utter lack of reading comprehension skills (like pulling the same door labelled “push” for the hundredth time), what job could one suggest for them where this “disability” wouldn’t be detrimental?

    The example you’ve given is likely not a problem with reading comprehension but obliviousness. I read and understand things very well (I have to read and correct engineering drawings and schematics and implement them), but I simply don’t notice a lot of what goes on around me.

    My suggestion for that is any job that doesn’t require safety, physical team labor, or security.

        Cleaner… most probably…

        Anything physical related and repetitive, so he learns the ropes by heart. Garbage truck man, that could also be an option… pr0n star 🤔 🤷 🤣?

          Interesting that you don’t think those occupations require safety or physical labor. I’d hate to see how you clean, operate large equipment, or fuck if you’re gonna dismiss safety and labor in doing so.

            I was thinking of just using a broom 😒… can’t do much harm with that… well, unless you use it as a weapon 😂.

          Let’s see how you mix two basic chemicals when mixing cleaning supplies. Will probably very fun :)
          Should I call the fire department in advance?

            I don’t know where you live, but most off shelf cleaning supplies around here are safe to mix. The strong industrial stuff, no, but I never said he should work as a cleaner in a large industrial complex or something like a mall. My suggestion was a cleaner for like appartments, houses, hallways, stuff like that.

              Both us us have fair points.
              I thought about hospital/industrial/professional range and you more of a domestical range
